      Bourque only wore #7 from 1979-1987 & I could be wrong here but, I'm pretty sure that's less than ten years!!

    This moment was definitely among the top five classiest things I've ever seen in my life, not just sports. I recall it being talked about at length the next day on the radio station I listened to at work in Waterloo, Ontario.

    First, what Mr. Bourque did was class. Secondly, that gesture should have never needed to take place because Mr. Bourque should have never been given that number to begin with! It was a slap in the face to Mr. Esposito to give his number to a rookie or anyone else. Raymond Bourque is a first class gentleman.

      From what I read, Espo was still active in the WHA during Bourque’s rookie year. This is why #7 was issued.

      ​@@habcast3978 Because, if he surrendered it, as you put it, before it was retired, or at least put inactive, anyone else could wear it. Why should he give his number up for someone else to wear. That's kinda stupid to even ask tbh.

    It’s not often you can stop Phil Esposito from talking; Ray Bourque did it that night….. real classy movie and Ray was right; for what Phil Esposito did and ment to The Boston Bruins franchise, no one should ever been given Phil’s number “7”.

      Well yeah, it’s my opinion, genius. Bourque’s number wasn’t assigned, he chose it! He chose it and just as readily he RELINQUISHED it. So again, if he can relinquish it, why then did he not opt to REJECT it initially if it was supposedly “assigned” to him? You AND your opinion are full of shit…oh and add the gullible Bruin fans that buy your narrative and the one spun by the Bruins organization headed up by the evil prick Harry Sinden and the corrupt Jeremy Jacobs.

      Dude, your talking as though Ray was a chump fourth line hanger on up for a cup of coffee with Boston. Bourque was an all-star, a solid captain for many years, a leader who very nearly got Boston to the Cup, a Stanley Cup Champion, and the best Bruin defenseman sonce Orr. He wore #7 with pride and then gave it back to Espo so it could be retired. How is that NOT a class move?

      He gave everything to the Bruins and the team was going into a major rebuild mode. He wanted a shot at getting a ring. You can't blame him for that. Players play to try to win championships. He gave his all to the Bruins and they were going to struggle whether he stayed or not. It wasn't a bitter divorce.
